Baby Oscar Hardships

[elting44]

Bad news. I went down stairs and the poor little guy was stuck to the filter intake . I turned the filter off and he sank to the bottom where he remains. I don't think he is going to make it. Its a bummer but I feel confident that I did everything I could and he was just too far gone from the get go. I am going to keep a close eye on him over the next hours. I'll let you guys know if he miraculously make a turn for the better....

Well he moved on up to the big pond in the sky. Oh well, what can you do but give it your best shot. Thanks everyone for the support and ideas. You all rock in my book

Good for you for trying. Sorry he didn't make it.

It sounds like he is a little stressed out. People don't care they think fish are just fish,and treat them like they are bugs. But fish and bugs have feelings too. But I think he just needs to get used to the tank,and continue the treatment,and feed him a little,( usually if you feed them and they eat they will make it for the night) and just sit-back and see what happens.

Sorry to hear about the loss. At least you tried all you could.

It's funny until somebody gets hurt

He's cute until he outgrows that tank.
